Inverse problem transport calculations for anisotropic scattering coefficients

One‐speed transport anisotropic scattering coefficients are calculated by an inverse transport model which requires only emerging angular distributions from a homogeneous slab uniformly irradiated by a monodirectionally incident beam. The solution of the direct problem used to test the inverse calculations is obtained with the FN method of Siewert. New numerical schemes are developed which are applicable for the FN solution of other one‐speed problems. The inverse transport method shows promise for characterizing media by only measurements of reflected and transmitted laser light from a slab.
